on the KV if you can move the cross shaft in to the back hole & move plough closer to the tractor will help as well
Fendt 724, heavy rear mounted implement.

What ever you do on the linkage isn't going to make the plough lighter, but we've had some short term solutions of water full front tyred.

Top link as low as you can on the tractor, & as high as you can on the plough will throw the tail up & in.

There’s a lad on a farm near Newcastle I got some parts off he was making proper front weight blocks to fit on front linkages for this purpose. They were tidy things fairly wide he was showing me them

He has a New Holland in bitsFirst important thing is to accept your mistake. Put the fendt on feeder waggon where it belongs and get a proper tractor.
Or get grinder out and cut back furrow off.
There's lads down here running a 6f and pacomat I might can find out what they're running on their's .
I'm counting up roughly 1400kgs of wafer weights and 300kgs graip at a guess ?
How to wreck a tractor fast. Fendt 700's are for silage work, rolling, baling, drilling and pulling trailers. They are far too short and light for draft work.
Your options? buy a tractor with the stature required for the plough you have, or buy a 7f semi mounted plough. 6f is too big to hang off the back anyway.

If there in line with ones on front, not going to make much difference.
Compaction .compaction , why is everything so BIG and HEAVY.
What happened to light weight . Land is being beaten to death.
Neighbours today , one has a 4 row sp grimme potato harvester, filling into tri axle Larrington trailer s. Other one has a 6 wheel monster euro ropa beet harvester plus trailers .

Both of those harvesters will be 30t enpty, then carry 15-20t more. Crazy.
We've stuck with our trailed harvester and 12t trailers mostly.

Do you have enough traction?
With that much weight on the nose and the plough down there's a lot of weight off the rear wheels
